Yep, I am totally digging the Nittos. Drove the VX to work on Monday to get some highway time in on them and see how they worked out. Excellent. No road rumble at all!!!! Although, even though they are the same size as my Yokos, I have some serious rubbing on the front cladding. I swear, I am the only person here who has rubbing issues with tires, heh. Looks like I have to shave back about 1/2" this time according to the abrasions on the cladding. Its much worse in reverse of course, but I do get some minor rubbing turning going forward. No big deal though.

I got her all wetsanded and buffed though. Took me a few nights in the garage to get her done, but she is showroom quality. Been raining the passed couple of days now though so I am leaving her in the garage for now, heh. Dont wanna spot up that insane shine, hahaha.

The ML clone brushguard that Tone offers should be on its way sometime soon, so I look forward to mounting that on there. Should add to the Urban-Guy-Moves-to-Rural-Land-and-Tries-to-Fit-in-With-the-Other-Rednecks syndrome, hahaha. Man, she was turning some SERIOUS heads on Monday when I had her out. I am giddy all over again for the VX!!!

Oh, apparently, the shop that I had her in a couple months ago for the battery pop repairs forgot to put the rubber hood bumpers back in, so the hood was hopping from side to side on the highway at speeds at 55+. They were pretty dry rotted anyways, so I am hoping St Charles can snag me some.
